Best Public Schools in Stillwater, NY

Summary:

The city of Stillwater, New York is home to two schools: Stillwater Middle School High School and Stillwater Elementary School, both part of the Stillwater Central School District. While both schools perform reasonably well, the data indicates that Stillwater Middle School High School is the standout, ranking in the top 15% of New York high schools and outperforming the state average on key metrics.

Stillwater Middle School High School boasts a 4 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger, a 87.7% four-year graduation rate, and strong performance on 7th grade state math assessments. In contrast, Stillwater Elementary School, while still performing adequately, does not stand out as strongly, ranking in the middle of the pack for New York elementary schools. The data also reveals significant racial homogeneity across both schools, with over 93% of students identifying as white.

Interestingly, the funding and resources allocated to the two schools differ substantially, with Stillwater Middle School High School spending $17,970 per student compared to $12,057 per student at the elementary school. This disparity in funding may contribute to the performance gap between the two schools. Additionally, the high chronic absenteeism rate of 28.1% at the middle/high school is an area of concern that the district should investigate and address.
